After finishing second their first two matches of the season, Oxford City made it third time lucky when they won their Southern Women's League Division 2 meeting in North Devon to move up to second in the table.

City headed down to the southwest on Friday, and the overnight stay paid dividends as the team managed 15 first places, 16 personal bests and two club records.

Under 15s Jade Walker and Hannah Sangan picked up first places in the A and B string 1500m, while under 17s Kirsty Warland and Amelia Swan did likewise in the 80m hurdles.

Amy Cooper did well to take second in the 200m with a personal best of 29.4secs.

She avoided calamity after the Poole athlete, who was leading the race, fell in front of her just 15 metres from the line.

Nionah Ntaranga, competing for the first time in the Southern League this season, took first place in the discus with a throw of 19.83.

Trying to match her teammate in the B string event, Walker entered the cage, only to have to come back out of the circle after realising she had forgotton her discus!

The under 15 girls rounded off the afternoon with a tremendous performance in the 4x100m relay.

Danielle Anderson, Cooper and Ntaranga had set up a last leg with the slightest of leads, which Emily Carstairs held on to.

In the senior events, Hayley Chaundy put in the track performance of the afternoon in the 1500m.

Running side-by-side with the Basingstoke athlete, she pulled away to finish 60 metres ahead of the field.

The seniors also had a good afternoon in the field events.

Hayley Luke cleared 1.60m in the pole vault to set a new club record for under 20 women.

Tracy Cooper then had success in the shot to break her her own club best for the veteran with a winning throw of 7.51m.

Result: 1 Oxford City 164, 2 North Devon 139, 3 Basingstoke 126, 4 Wimbourne & Poole 83.
